Filed Under: News

Collapsing Horizons is the third full length album from Netherlands based deep ambient duo Tangent. This album much like the two preceding it – 1mk2 (Mindtrick) and 20Transience (Tympanik) – is a sonic journey with arching atmospheres and themes.

That region is where Geir Jenssen, the Norwegian electronic producer behindBiosphere, comes from, and where he has been composing his austere, disturbing and deeply textured ambience since the early 1980s. Biosphere has released many albums to date including Substrata, voted the greatest ambient album of all time on the Hyperreal website, and has collaborated with Arne Nordheim, Higher Intelligence Agency, Deathprod, Pete Namlook and Bel Canto. His 12th album Departed Glories is his first in almost five years and marks[…]

PLANETARY ASSAULT SYSTEMS | Arc Angel (Ostgut Ton)

Filed Under: News

With Arc Angel, Planetary Assault Systems departs to new musical frontiers by focussing on melody, but staying rooted in the purist values of Techno that Luke Slater shaped over his decades- and generations-spanning career. While the album title may sound like a reference to spiritual matters, it hints to rather secular affairs – piety is a relict of the past after all. Arc Angel is a postmodernist, non-comfortist Techno album first and foremost, catering as much for club contexts as for accessibility in new melodic terms.
